Contributor Westrik, J.A. (mentor) Qu, L. (mentor) Van der Hoeven, F. (mentor) Faculty Architecture Department urbanism Date 2010-11-02 Abstract This master thesis is the result of a graduation project for the MSc program in Urbanism at the faculty of Architecture at Delft University of Technology. It aims at making a strategy to use the Olympic Games as a catalyst for urban regeneration in Rotterdam. Although the Games in itself are a short-term event, the impact on the host city and surrounding region can be of great extent in the long run. Increasingly, mega-events like the Olympic Games are considered a tool for urban regeneration with the intention to bring about longterm development for the city and its region. This phenomenon is called the mega-event strategy.
